Steps:
- Place watermelon chunks in a large bowl. Finely chop lemon zest. Add lemon juice and half of zest to bowl with watermelon. Add mint, oil, and arugula (if using) and toss until watermelon is evenly dressed. Season lightly to taste with salt and pepper. (The cheese will add saltiness, so go light on the salt at this stage.)
- Transfer salad to a wide, shallow bowl or a large plate and spread out evenly. Crumble feta over the top. Sprinkle with remaining lemon zest. Drizzle with more olive oil and a few grinds of black pepper. Serve immediately.

WATERMELON AND TOMATO FETA SALAD
A light and tangy combination of watermelon, tomato and mint creating a delicious combination of sweet, sour and salty flavors. While the melon should be chilled, the other ingredients are their most flavorful at room temperature, so combine the salad just before serving.

WATERMELON, FETA & MINT SALAD
As far as salads go, they don't come more refreshing than this Watermelon, Feta, and Mint Salad. Come Summertime, watermelon is a kitchen staple here-we simply can't get enough of it. The combination of flavors in this salad is about as classic a pairing as mozzarella, tomato, and basil but we've topped ours with Cloud 9 Blackberry Balsamic Vinegar which adds the perfect fruity tang to this sweet and savory dish. This also makes the perfect picnic or BBQ side dish as it keeps well and is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser-and did we mention ridiculously easy to throw together?

WATERMELON SALAD WITH FETA AND MINT
This was posted in the local paper. It originally was published in the July 2009 issue of "Food & Wine" magazine from Jacques Pepin. This watermelon salad is sweet and salty. The recipe suggests preparing just before eating to prevent it from becoming watery. I haven't tried it but am putting it here for safe keeping.

Steps:
- Cut watermelon in half and remove watermelon from rind; the easiest way to do this is with a melon baller. Place melon balls into a large mixing bowl. Save the rind to use as the salad bowls for a pretty presentation, scraping out to the same depth all over and cutting a small slice from the bottoms of the outside rinds so that each half will sit evenly on a table.
- Crumble feta cheese over the watermelon, chiffonade the mint (roll leaves into a cigar and slice thinly across the 'cigar' to get ribbons of mint) and sprinkle over watermelon. Grind pepper to taste over all.
- To make the dressing, blend or shake the olive oil and vinegar in a jar until emulsified. Pour over watermelon and toss gently. Chill for 30 minutes, spoon carefully into reserved watermelon rind 'bowls' and serve.
